COMMERCE CITY, Colo., Feb. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Thermostat today announced it has commissioned the first containerized T-Series system for Direct Air Capture of carbon dioxide, which is designed to remove from tonnes to tens of tonnes per year from the atmosphere and aimed at smaller commercial and pilot applications.

Key Points: 
  • "Many companies are seeking a rapidly deployable, low-footprint, climate-friendly way of obtaining the carbon dioxide they need," said Paul Nahi, CEO of Global Thermostat.
  • "Others are interested in piloting a smaller scale Direct Air Capture solution as they plan higher volume deployments in the future," Nahi added.
  • It can be used in combination with underground storage or mineralization to permanently remove past carbon dioxide emissions.
  • Global Thermostat's patented Direct Air Capture solution consists of high-efficiency fans that pull air through ultra-high surface area contactors where the surface geometry and embedded solid sorbent have been custom-designed to optimize the capture of CO2.

COMMERCE CITY, Colo., Dec. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Thermostat today unveiled a design for Direct Air Capture machines that can be grouped to capture over 1 million metric tonnes of carbon dioxide per year from the atmosphere, in line with its mission to unlock new, air-based sources of carbon for the global economy and address climate change at a magnitude the latest science makes clear will be required.

Key Points: 
  • This represents a quantum leap in how much carbon dioxide our customers can remove from the atmosphere for their needs.
  • The U.S. Department of Energy awarded funding in 2021 to develop an initial engineering design for a Direct Air Capture carbon dioxide removal system with an annual capacity of at least 100,000 tonnes.
  • The prime contractor partnered with Sargent & Lundy and Global Thermostat to develop the scaled-up design of Global Thermostat's Direct Air Capture technology .
  • "Not only do we have a uniquely cost-advantaged and advanced core Direct Air Capture technology, the M-Series design also allows us to harness economies of scale."
